Abstract

The present paper provides an study about the importance of the consumer protection in the collaborative economy, focusing on the relation between online platforms and the consumers. Special mention will be made to the Airbnb Ireland case, on the occasion of the Common position letter of national authorities within the Consumer Protection Cooperation Network (CPC Network), concerning the commercial practices and the terms of service of Airbnb Ireland. We will also pay attention to the subsequent European Commission’s press release in July 2018 adopting enforcement actions against Airbnb.
